Most (93%) of the greenhouse gas emissions in the transport sector come from road traffic in Sweden which includes passenger and freight transport activity (Trafikverket, 2022). The aim of this thesis was to understand pathways that transport purchasers can pursue to reach the fossil-free transportation goals from manufacturing plant to customer and to develop a process for assessing a market and
When producing biological drugs, homogeneity within and between batches is of great importance to protect public health from sources of variability. Most biopharmaceuticals are proteins, and proteins tend to undergo post-translational modifications, such as glycosylation. As this may impact potency and immunogenicity, accurately controlling and measuring the glycosylation of a biological drug is n
A variety of excess material is produced in the processes used in the scrap-metal based steel industry. The largest stream of material, by volume, is steel slag. Since slag material has very different properties and wide differences in its chemical composition its usage can be found in different sectors. The increased understanding of slag and its properties has made companies less prone to divert
Equity crowdfunding has achieved a high popularity in the UK throughout the last years. However, most researchers within this field primarily focused on the success factors of an equity crowdfunding campaign while only little is known about the post-campaign effects. Therefore, the aim of this thesis is to determine which patterns of characteristics successfully equity crowdfunded companies that r
Abstract Problem: While it has been extensively studied which personal characteristics enhance entrepreneurial learning from failure, the mechanisms of how those characteristics contribute to entrepreneurial learning process has not yet been fully understood. Aim: Through a comprehensive model, this research aims to explore how different personal characteristics influence the different stages o
Leap-frog migration, i.e. when a northerly breeding population/species migrates further south compare to southerly breeding population/species, is a common migration pattern in birds. However, it is still unknown which factors facilitate the evolution of such a migration pattern pattern. A textbook example of a species exhibiting leap-frog migration is the Common Ringed Plover Charadrius hiaticula
The phase field method emerged as a tool to solve free boundary problems with a sharp interface. In previous methods, this involved the computationally inefficient and complicated tracking of a moving interface. The phase field method overcomes this limitation by introducing an auxiliary variable called the order parameter which varies continuously over the whole domain and takes on finite values
In a world where globalisation generates monotony, industry has looked at the rich cultural past of traditional cultures for inspiration to distinguish its products and services. The growing demand for access to Traditional Cultural Expressions (TCEs) by industry has led to the exploitation and misappropriation of TCEs. Despite huge profits derived from TCEs, indigenous and traditional communities
Kväveföreningar påverkar miljön på flera sätt när de kommer ut i luft och vatten, bland annat så sker övergödning och försurning men även ozonkoncentrationen kan påverkas i troposfären och stratosfären. Effekterna som kväve ger upphov till har inte fått mycket uppmärksamhet i klimat- och miljödebatter, istället har fokus varit koldioxidutsläppen. Konceptet kvävefotavtryck introducerades nyligen soNitrogen species have several environmental effects when emitted to water and air, such as eutrophication and acidification but they may also alter the ozone concentration in the troposphere and stratosphere. These effects have not received much attention in the climate and environmental debates, instead the focus has been on carbon emissions. Nitrogen footprint is a newly introduced concept among
En betydande del av alla offentliga upphandlingar leder till upprättande av ramavtal. Ramavtal är avtal som fastställer villkoren för kontrakt som senare ska tilldelas. EU-domstolen har i en dom från 2018 behandlat ett för upphandlingsområdet nytt fenomen. Domen rör takvolymer i ramavtal vilket avser en bestämd gräns för hur mycket som är tillåtet att avropa. Eftersom 2014 års direktiv och sedermA significant part of all public procurements leads to the conclusion of framework agreements. Framework agreements are agreements that define the terms of contracts to be awarded later. In a 2018 judgment, the European Court of Justice dealt with a new phenomenon for the procurement area. The judgment concerns determined volumes in framework agreements, which refer to a specific limit on how muc
Around the world, the treatment of food waste is a major administrative and environmental problem throughout the food supply chain. Beijing, as any other mega city, is facing vast issues of sustainable food waste treatment in addition to efforts for food waste reduction. Presently the majority of Beijing's food waste is treated together with the mixed residual waste in landfills (53%) and inci
Gender roles and constructions of ideals have long imposed unrealistic expectations on people to behave in certain ways and even be certain types of people. Women, more so, than others. Ideals of womanhood, what it means to be a woman, a good woman, a new woman, have required women to perform who they are at all times. The imaginary of the “New Woman” is only of these ideals that has been around g
När ett företag vill bedriva en miljöfarlig verksamhet krävs det att de beviljas ett tillstånd för verksamheten i enlighet med miljöbalken (1998:808). När systemet för tillståndsprocessen sattes i bruk var lagstiftaren tvungen att göra flera avvägningar, bland annat mellan nyttan för miljön och ekonomin. Tillståndsprocessen ger myndigheter och domstolar chansen att granska verksamheten. Den ger ocWhen a company wants to create a new business that can be regarded as harmful for the environment, the company in question must apply for a permit in accordance with the Swedish Environmental code (1998:808). The legislator, when creating this process of applying for a permit, had to balance multiple different interests. Some of these interests include the environment and the economic aspect. This
This essay presents the contemporary research debate on if and how to regulate the use of PMSCs. Providing an extensive overview of the current arguments for and against the regulation of this market, this essay focuses specifically on the legal dimension of this question. Presenting arguments for and against new legislation in this area, the essay investigates the question of applicability of exi
Crohn’s disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC) are the two main types of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). The prevalence of these conditions is approximately 0.7%. With the advent of new treatments and improved management algorithms throughout the last century, the mortality rates associated with these conditions have decreased steeply. However, IBD is still a major cause of lifetime morbidity.
Changing rainfall patterns make farmers increasingly vulnerable to crop failure, income loss and food insecurity. Agroecology is proposed to reduce climate vulnerabilities of farmers, as such practices and social movement aim to create more resilient farm and food systems. It is however fairly unknown if, and to what extent, agroecological farmers are better able to cope with climate induced expos

Digital controllers are traditionally implemented using periodic sampling, computation, and actuation events. As more control systems are implemented to share limited network and CPU bandwidth with other tasks, it is becoming increasingly attractive to use some form of event-based control instead, where precious events are used only when needed. Forms of event-based control have been used in prac
